But because I do not agree with all of her political philosophy, I'm not so giddy as some.<BR/><BR/>That said, let's let her serve in the office of VP for a term or two before we consider her for 2016 presidential bid. All in all, I think she might be a viable choice for then, but that's a lot of years away. Plenty of time for her to screw up, as so many good ones have before. <BR/><BR/>Mr. H says that I am a wet blanket. I prefer to think of myself as realistic (or as having let myself fall too many times because of my overenthusiasm). <BR/><BR/>I want Palin to succeed. I desperately want the McCain/Palin ticket to win in November, because I fear the Obasocialist future. But I'm not expecting rainbows and unicorns, and neither should you.RebeccaHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113907852048577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-21385391192934034882008-08-30T11:13:00.000-04:002008-08-30T11:13:00.000-04:00That's no way to talk about President Clinton.I du...<I>That's no way to talk about President Clinton.</I><BR/><BR/>I dunno, C.L., is he the hamburger or garbage disposal in this analogy? ;-p<BR/><BR/><I>In the backwoods, stupid kills. </I><BR/><BR/>mojo, how true that is. Alaska is mostly a howling wilderness, with a few pinpricks of civilization here and there. Wolves run around the edges of Fairbanks and Anchorage, for example. Sometimes they foray in as well.<BR/><BR/>I didn't do much traveling outside of the urban areas of Alaska when I was stationed there, in large part because I wasn't familiar with it, lacked the equipment (it was at home), and didn't have the time to find a suitable mentor. Entering the wilderness (even the national parks) means ramping up your situational awareness; that ain't Kansas by any stretch of the imagination.<BR/><BR/>So Palin is well aware of just how thin the veneer of civilization truly is on this planet. <BR/><BR/>A wise choice indeed.the_real_jeffsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935370618605188900.post-8279756628273670242008-08-30T02:14:00.000-04:002008-08-30T02:14:00.000-04:00Palin by comparison:Two words - common senseYou ca...Palin by comparison:<BR/><BR/>Two words - common sense<BR/><BR/>You can get by ok in the city without it if you (as Warren Zevon put it) "live on the Upper East side and never go down in the street."<BR/><BR/>It might even be a positive boon i n that context.
